Overall the cottage was nice, clean and quiet. The only complaints were, the bed pillows are extremely uncomfortable and there is little to no signal for the TV. My husband wasn’t happy about that!

Everything I needed was there. It was close to everywhere I wanted to go. The only issue I had was the steps. I never would have rented it if I had known. I have knee problems and it made it very uncomfortable to go up and down. And the ones inside to the bathroom and kitchen are just an accident waiting to happen.

This a quiet property, howbeit it is very close to car lots and businesses. There is no view to speak of. But if a quiet and close in cottage is what you are looking for, this is the one. I will mention it is for two people only.

A lovely and spacious cottage, great for a solo or couple, is at the edge of town on a hillside. It is very clean and comfortable with a great kitchen, big comfy bed with great linens. A quiet and peaceful spot to relax but also close to activities and shops.
